Cardiac patterning and morphogenesis in zebrafish.
Development of the embryonic vertebrate heart requires the precise coordination of pattern formation and cell movement. Taking advantage of the availability of zebrafish mutations that disrupt cardiogenesis, several groups have identified key regulators of specific aspects of cardiac patterning and morphogenesis. Several genes, including gata5, fgf8, bmp2b, one-eyed pinhead, and hand2, have bee...
متن کاملedn1 and hand2 Interact in Early Regulation of Pharyngeal Arch Outgrowth during Zebrafish Development
Endothelin-1 (Edn1) signaling provides a critical input to development of the embryonic pharygneal arches and their skeletal derivatives, particularly the articulating joints and the ventral skeleton including the lower jaw. Previous work in zebrafish has mostly focused on the role of Edn1 in dorsal-ventral (DV) patterning, but Edn1 signaling must also regulate tissue size, for with severe loss...
متن کاملDownregulation of Dlx5 and Dlx6 expression by Hand2 is essential for initiation of tongue morphogenesis.
Lower jaw development is a complex process in which multiple signaling cascades establish a proximal-distal organization. These cascades are regulated both spatially and temporally and are constantly refined through both induction of normal signals and inhibition of inappropriate signals. The connective tissue of the tongue arises from cranial neural crest cell-derived ectomesenchyme within the...
متن کاملRegulation of posterior body and epidermal morphogenesis in zebrafish by localized Yap1 and Wwtr1
The vertebrate embryo undergoes a series of dramatic morphological changes as the body extends to form the complete anterior-posterior axis during the somite-forming stages. The molecular mechanisms regulating these complex processes are still largely unknown. We show that the Hippo pathway transcriptional coactivators Yap1 and Wwtr1 are specifically localized to the presumptive epidermis and n...
متن کاملDermoskeleton morphogenesis in zebrafish fins
Zebrafish fins have a proximal skeleton of endochondral bones and a distal skeleton of dermal bones. Recent experimental and genetic studies are discovering mechanisms to control fin skeleton morphogenesis. Whereas the endochondral skeleton has been extensively studied, the formation of the dermal skeleton requires further revision. The shape of the dermal skeleton of the fin is generated in it...
